Last I checked, this is still America and we do have free speech. However, speech is sometimes limited. Without knowing anything further about the situation, I cannot comment. Please feel free to call me at 1.877.505.INJURY so that we can discuss this matter in more detail.

If physical condition or weight is important to the sport for which the coach is employed, it would be negligent of the coach to ignore weight and he is certainly priviliged to comment on it UNLESS the comment is sexually suggestive or tied to some other improper motive.
